As I stated earlier, you are yet to find a single fault in anything my pastor teaches or preaches.
On the contrary, I find far too many faults. FYI, I attended an amillennial Refomanistic Augustinian Church for a while.
The congregation was hopelessly ignorant of even the infantile basics of soteriology and eschatology and Israelology.
Which is the only reason that the pastor could persist in not knowing what he was talking when "preaching" week in and week out.
Poor guy was hopeless. He was basically a B.A. grad who needed a salary and went for the "marrying and burying" profession.
Same goes for a number of other pastors around here. I learned absolutely zero from them (because they themselves certainly did not know or care to know), in fact their job seemed to be UN-LEARING the flock. Works exactly the same in the RC Church too.
Anyhoo, all of the a-mil Augustinian pastors will have to grapple with or ignore these passages that they don't rightly understand.
Or just take the paycheck and ignore the whole thing. That's the easy way out.
Amazingly, there are innumerable pastors and plenty of posters around here who have yet to figure out why Messiah was
born of the royal line of David! You know, the kingly line? The GREATER DAVID? They just don't get it. Seems impossible right?
Well, the Scripture is clear on the matter that much is true. Too bad so sad for the deniers!

Mat 5:35
Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by

Jhn 18:33
Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him,
Art thou the King of the Jews?
Jhn 18:37
Pilate therefore said unto him,
Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest
(correctly) that
I am a king (AFFIRMATION).
To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
